Defending European Champion, Markus Wieser won the title again in Balatonkenese, Hungary on Friday. Markus made a perfect start, sailed to the first mark as second and kept calm throughout the whole race. In the end he finished as third, and won the Championship.
PRO Gert Schmidleitner started the race after one general recall under blackflag at 11.35 in a Southern breeze of 10 to 12 knots which caused a fairly choopy water close to the port. As this was the last race and only one race has been scheduled for the day, the first beat was quite long with 2.1 nautical miles.
Markus Wieser made a secure start from the middle of the line and came up as 2nd to the first mark. His direct opponent, Anatoly Loginov, was not among the first 30, so from that time he only had to sail into the finish.
The race was won by RUS 90 with Dmitry Berezkin, who came up with that victory to the second place in the overall ranking. The third place went to Anatoly Loginov, who worked himself up to place 13 in the 7th race.
